<p class="MsoNormal">My question:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Do your cities have downtown design guidelines that require a certain percentage of transparent windows for buildings fronting to your “Main St”? If so, have you ever dealt with an applicant looking to get a variance for opaque or frosted
windows? I’m just curious what precedent may exist for a business/property being granted or denied such a variance. Of course, I’m asking totally hypothetically. I’m not dealing this right now, this minute.
